Give Me One Reason To Vote For...

[Yes We Did]

Okay, this should be fun.

Give me one reason to vote for your candidate. Only the two we have left running are eligible. (don't tell me Edwards, Gore, Kucinich...)

Can be an issue stance, a characteristic, or a personal reason.

Rules:

1. Don't slam the other candidate OR their supporters.
2. Each answer can only be used once
3. Name your candidate and give reason


I'll go first...

[Yes We Did]

15. Hey... I said ONE reason.

You broke the rules.
:spank:

[Juche]

16. I write my own rules

I drive when I see a red light, and I pay for groceries in euros. I live by my own rules.

[NEDem]

19. Just like your candidate

[ronnykmarshall]

23. No, I've seen Hillary at the grocery store

and she pays in pesos.

Smarty!

Feel stupid now, I bet?

And speaking of "bet".


MIDLER 08!!!!

[ronnykmarshall]

27. YOU are a scream!

:yourock:

Thank god, there's some people in here that still can laugh at this bullshit.

[SaveAmerica]

31. It's all I have to keep me from going CRAZY!!

[JeffR]

26. Damn, Ronny!

I'm trying to get this week's DUzy Awards done, and now you're making me add another bookmark. You Clinton supporters really are mean.;-)

[ronnykmarshall]

28. I'm clearing the mantel as we speak.

I'm the un-Lucci when it comes to DUZYS!

[JeffR]

29. And you're even more fabulous than she is.

:)

[helderheid]

14. Obama: NO permanent bases in Iraq

[applegrove]

18. Hillary. She is tough and tested. She'll be able to fight off GOP slurrs because

she has a history and is a known commodity to all. Plus her plans for health care and the like are great. She'll put distance between her administration and McCain's. She'll leave him in the dust.

[SaveAmerica]

22. I believe Obama + more dems in congress = faster/safer withdrawal from Iraq

After watching "The Speech" and Obama's town hall type meeting yesterday (online), I'm 100% behind Obama and have signed on as of today to volunteer for his campaign.

[paulk]

25. Hillary

I don't agree with everything she's said or done, but I feel she's the one most ready to be President. I've felt that way since this started and nothing has happened to make me change my mind.

[cyndensco]

32. Obama

He is cool under fire and plans ahead.

[JTG of the PRB]

33. Obama.

I believe he is the greatest hope for our country, the one who can lead us away from the war and hatred and misery of the last seven years. Hillary would definitely make a much better President than McCain, but Obama is the man who I believe can help restore respect, dignity, and peace to this country better than any other candidate.
